Psh. You might want to believe that, but Christians, Jews, and Muslims are united in the faith in the one and only god. We all worship the same being, believe in the same principles. Many Christians and Jews do not follow the guidelines so strictly as Muslims do, and there are a few minor differences in religious beliefs, but we still worship the same god.

You see, Chrisitans associate Jesus son of Mary and the Holy Spirit with God. They take Mary as an intercessor with God and that is associationism. And God has forbidden Paradise for anyone that associates anything as an equal with Him. The Jews associated partners with God when they took their Rabbi's words over Gods and they broke their covenant with God when they slew the Prophets that came to them. They rejected Jesus son of Mary and slandered his mother.

The Jews and the Chrisitans reject Muhammad and to believe in him and believe in everything that he brought is mandatory to enter Paradise and his coming was foretold in the previous scriptures as is confirmed by scholars from among them that came to Islam such as Abdullah ibn Salam.

Bottom line - Worship none but God, associate nothing with Him, believe in the final Messenger Muhammad, believe that Jesus son of Mary was no more than a human and a Messenger of God, and believe in the life after death and you will be successfull. It's really as simple as that.

I've never heard of Christians saying Mary is equal to God. Ever. That's why they're called monotheists.

Few Christians even know who Muhammad is. They do not reject him, and they do not know anything about him, except maybe that he was the human founder of Islam. I'm Christian, but I accept Muhammad as a messenger/prophet of God. Then again, I'm also considering converting to Islam.

Jesus...he's part of the reason why I'm considering converting. But I just read in the Bible today in church that when he was baptised, a voice from Heaven said that he was God's son. He always used "Son of Man" as a self-designation, and yet the entry on that phrase in that same Bible defines the phrase as meaning any human being. Hm.

God has manifested Himself in the form of a human before, has He not? What makes the idea of Him coming down more than once as human so ridiculous? He struggled with Jacob and then renamed him Israel, as I remember. Or maybe that was just an angel God sent. Can't remember anymore...

Yes, but don't they seek her intercession? That is associationism. The Qur'an makes this clear:

10: 18 And they worship other than Allah that which neither harms them nor benefits them, and they say, "These are our intercessors with Allah " Say, "Do you inform Allah of something He does not know in the heavens or on the earth?" Exalted is He and high above what they associate with Him.

Islam is pure, strict monotheism. All worship, supplication, actions are for God alone because He alone is worthy of having this done for Him.
That is why we are trying to spread this message of Islam to them. Those who genuinly never got the message of Islam, or were prevented from getting it have their reckoning with God who will give them a chance on the Day of Judgement.

That's excellent news. I hope you accept Islam
But what is the authentic proof that this happened? If Jesus son of Mary was truly the 'son' of God, why would he always say 'Son of Man' as you yourself stated?

3: 59 Indeed, the example of Jesus to Allah is like that of Adam. He created Him from dust; then He said to him, "Be," and he was.

Don't allow yourself to be mislead by doubts and the whispering of Satan, you are heading in the right direction, take that step
I am not familiar with this story, but we believe that God can never manifest himself as part of His creation. It does not suit His Majesty. He is above such a thing, the created and the Creator can never be equal.

I certainly don't see it. Mary was chosen by God to be the vessel that held Jesus's human body for nine months. So what? I suppose next you'll say that the Apostles were bad as well. We do not worship anyone but God. Although I have heard that Catholics pray to her or some other figure. I don't know why, and it is something that I haven't confirmed yet. In any case, that's only the Catholics, and not all Christians.

I'm guessing he either said that to put himself on the level with humans, to say that he was in human form and suffered as we do, or to say "I'm not God! Get it through your head!" in a polite way. In my experience, all religious texts are vague like that...>.<

Kinda funny that someone who believes in God would ask for authentic proof of something religious, considering religion is based on faith. =P

Bleh. I believe God can do whatever He wants, whenever He wants. I think that He has come down as human, multiple times apparently, to do things that we might not be able to understand. I have seen no evidence to the contrary.

The thing is that, no matter how long she held Jesus's body she is still a human and does not have a share in divinity. To take her, or anyone for that matter as an intercessor with God is the very associationism that the Prophet Muhammad came to end.

Unquestionably, for Allah is the pure religion. And those who take protectors besides Him [say], "We only worship them that they may bring us nearer to Allah in position." Indeed, Allah will judge between them concerning that over which they differ. Indeed, Allah does not guide he who is a liar and [confirmed] disbeliever. [Quran 39/3]

He Who created Adam without a father or a mother is able to create Jesus son of Mary, as well, without a father. If the claim is made that `Jesus son of Mary is Allah's son because he was created without a father, then the same claim befits Adam even more. However, since such a claim regarding Adam is obviously false, then making the same claim about Jesus son of Mary is even more false. Furthermore, by mentioning these facts, Allah emphasizes His ability, by creating Adam without a male or female, Hawa' from a male without a female, and Jesus son of Mary from a mother without a father, compared to His creating the rest of creation from male and female.
I asked for proof whether the story is authentic or not. In Islam, our Qur'an, and the narrations from the Messenger can be traced back to him. There are chains of narrations for everything that we know to be from Muhammad (saw). Therefore, faith is required for something such as Life after Death, but proof is required if a statement or a story is attributed to the Messenger.

Of course God can do whatever He wills whenever He wills. But the question is did He do it? So I say what I said before, it does not suit His Majesty. He is above such things.

3: 47 ...When He has decreed something, He says to it only: "Be!" and it is.

Christians do not see Mary as divine by any definition of the word. She is an important figure in Christendom by the fact that she was mother of Jesus Christ, but beyond that she is never considered to be divine. Catholics probably put more emphasis on the mother of Christ than other denominations, but they don't consider Mary to be divine either.

the thing is that you're asking this question from a human point of view. our imagination is very limited. everything we do in this world is based on a shape,color....etc. the term 'creation' is taught to you, and is part of your imagination, but your imagination cannot go beyond that.
if I ask you could you model me another way of life, you would still come up with something like "cells, organs, ..." using terms and stuff that we know. we can't model a life, something new, without using life terminologies , something like we've never seen before, and actually it would not work bc we wouldn't understand it. so when you say who created then God, this is your limited imagination (human imagination), bc probably outside our imagination, the term creation doesn't even exist. and Allah swt is able to do anything, and his knowledge is perfect. He has created things that match with our nature, that we can understand. This some sort of question like:
"can God create a rock that he can't hold it", so in this case we use our limited imagination bc we think that Allah swt knows only to make gravity, probably outside our world, in Allah's knowledge there is some other type of thing, which is nothing like gravity, so if Allah want he can disappear the term of "mass or gravity" and it doesn't exist anymore, and the question would not make sense anymore.

you get what i'm sayin. and please don't ask these kind of questions. cuz they're funny

Funny? Why?
One of the arguments that many theists use is that every thing comes from some thing else. Therefore there must be a created. I’m just pointing out that I find that conclusion erroneous. Using the same logic, the creator needs a creator.
So it is just as valid to say the creator was the energy of the big bang.
Not what I believe, just pointing out what I conceder faulty logic.

everything is created BUT the creator.

theres your answer

Again, very standard response.
Logic tells you ....... till the logic fails and that is where god comes in.

dude, there can't be a creator of a creator, it does not make sense , there cannot be a creator[1] of a creator[2], bc then the creator[2] would not be a creator but a creation. the root of everything comes from the creator. the word itself 'creator' tells that he created and he can't be created . Creator[1] is a the devisor. How can someone ie. Creator[2] create a creator[1] that is a deviser? than the the one who created Creator[1] is the deviser, not the creator[1]. and we come to the conclusion that we don't call Creator[1] a creator but a creation.
i don't know if you've ever used unix systems but it's like that
/home/user/ , we know that the folder user belongs to home, and home to / . but / does not belong to anywhere. it's the last point, you can't go beyond that folder cuz it's the root which holds everything. or maybe like Windows, you can go beyond the C:, which you go the hard drive as a whole, but you can't go beyond that. see
